[comp.databases] Automated Test Tool

Does anyone know of a tool to use to test SQL*FORMS [Oracle]
applications.  I'm thinking of a tool that could run on a PC
and capture the screens to automate the development of test suites
to be run when a change was made.  Bell Labs had such a tool, but
it was home grown.  They used a UNIX system to appear as a terminal
to an IBM IMS system.  We made up scripts that allowed us to
"push" any key on the terminal etc.  The screens returned were
compared to the previous test shot to give us automated test cases.
A good generic tool could test any application.  Thanks!
